Comment: You have flooded the page with references for minor points; it is preferable to have fewer high quality sources than a large number of low quality sources. Concentrate on summarizing your three best sources that give significant coverage of this company and tell why it is important/significant/influential- how it meets WP:ORG. If you work for this company, please see your user talk page for important information about a required disclosure, and respond there.Most of this draft seems to be about the founder of the company, rather than the company itself. It could be that the founder of the company is notable, but not the company itself. I don't know, but this article is trying to be two. 331dot (talk) 09:04, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
Andrew Martin is a British Interior Design company and producer of fabrics, wallpaper, furniture, and accessories.[1] The London-based design house has four showrooms: Walton Street Flagship[2], Tottenham Court Road, Design Centre Chelsea Harbour, and Wimbledon Outlet.
History[edit]
Andrew Martin was founded by Martin Waller and opened its first store[3] in Richmond-upon-Thames, London, England in 1978[4]. The store relocated to Walton Street in South Kensington, in 1987. Over the years there have been flagship showrooms in Moscow, Dubai, Cairo, Beijing, Mumbai, Marbella and nine US cities including New York and Los Angeles.
The term ‘fusion interiors’ was coined by the brand[5] to define its multi-cultural, eclectic style[6]. It was also the title of Waller’s book[7], published in 2000 by Pavilion in the UK and Watson-Guptill in the US.
Andrew Martin has collaborated on designs with the Andy Warhol Foundation, The Elvis Presley Estate, The National Gallery, Holly Frean, Kit Kemp, Kelly Hoppen MBE and Sophie Paterson[8][9], and has produced licensed products and collections for the John Lewis Partnership, Harrods, The British Museum[10], Restoration Hardware and TK Maxx.
The International Interior Designer of the Year Awards[edit]
In 1996 Martin Waller founded the Interior Designer of the Year Awards which The Sunday Times called, “the Oscars of the Interior Design world.”[11] Each year a panel of judges, which have included Gordon Ramsey, Jo Malone, Thandie Newton, Anya Hindmarch and Sarah, Duchess of York, chooses a designer who they deem has best captured the zeitgeist of the year.

Make sure your references confirm what you have written, I was seriously tempted to flag one or more with {{failed verification}}, but that is giving you a fish. Instead I a.m teaching you to fish.
Cite what you write. No citation that it has four showrooms, lose the words. Same with the list of foreign ones.
Why do we need to know about his book? The draft is about his business. What value, cited vale, does the book bring. Do not link to a book sales site. That is spamming. The book is not a reference anyway. If the book passes WP:NBOOK write its own draft.
The draft is not about Martin Waller. It is about Andrew Martin International so think very hard about using biographical details here.
All you need to do is to show that the org passes WP:NCORP. All. So cut, cut and cut again
